    by Cj on 6/24/19Minskoff Theatre - New YorkRating: 5 out of 5

    Best Broadway show ever with its gorgeous costumes, awesome set changes and vibrancy. Makes Hamilton with no set changes, boring costumes, and no great music look like it was put on by primary students!

    We loved the costumes, sets, choreography and wonderful performances! Nala was superb and “the monkey” was terrific! We found Timon and Pumba highly entertaining and very funny.! Only minus was young Simba’s weak singing (but strong acting). Overall, goosebumps! Kudos to entire company
